Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

If the math below is correct, it's still the same as it was, just repackaged. Our wallets will still feel the hit.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Trump’s suggestion that he could run for a third term—and Republican’s tacit openness to the prospect despite its clear unconstitutionality—is a low-key admission they don’t know how to put together a winning coalition without him directly in the ballot. See also: Wisconsin.

Thurmond was the same age as Booker when he set the record Senator Cory Booker just broke.
Thurmond was afforded a bathroom break and read from the encyclopedia. Booker held the floor the entire time and delivered a consistent, cogent speech for more than 24 hours.
Incredible.

In a democracy, there are checks and balances so official misconduct is investigated and people are held accountable.
In a dictatorship, misconduct is standard operating procedure and is covered up.
It's obvious which course the Trump regime is taking in the Signal texting scandal.

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and *that* is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

A coworker called me on Teams, well before a touch-base HE had requested. I answered the call & said, "Did I miss our meeting time? I thought it wasn't until 2:30."
He responded, "Well, your light was green so I decided we could meet now since I'm busy later."
Don't do that, people. Just, don't.

There’s been zero explanation for this given but it seems exceedingly likely it’s pure retaliation for the Maine governor challenging Trump. Really sick.

Social Security now requires Maine parents to visit an agency office to register newborns
The change — immediately criticized by pediatric health advocates — eliminates a program that allowed parents to fill out a form at the hospital to secure a Social Security number for their children.

The US added only 151,000 jobs in February, lower than the forecast 170,000 jobs, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.1%.
Yet again, a Republican president is blowing the strong economy he inherited from a Democrat.
